We’re excited to be introducing this fine-tuned evaluation model to Oklahoma. With a concise set of just 23 core teacher competencies, it empowers teachers to focus on the skills that are most likely to move students to the cognitive complexity required by standards—and it saves observers time, freeing you up for all the other important work you do.

This training will give you the professional development required for Oklahoma observer certification, as well as valuable guidance on conducting standards-based observations and using student evidence to drive scoring. The assessment for certification will be administered on the last day.

The only prerequisite is to download and read this white paper to become familiar with the Focused Model. We hope you’ll be able to join us!

Note: The number of participants per district is limited to ten. Please contactLee Manlyfor options to provide training for larger groups.
